Abstract
The invention relates to an environment-friendly solvent protection method which is used for preparing an organic solar cell with a stacking structure and breaks through the requirement on an orthogonal solvent in the sequential spin coating process. The method utilizes the characteristic that a benzene ring-free and halogen-free solvent (such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N-Dimethylformamide (DMF), N-hexane, N-heptane, N-octane, ethanol, methanol and ether solvents) has no solubility or extremely weak solubility on a donor material, and uses the solvent as a protective solvent to protect a film of the donor material from being damaged by the receptor material which is spin-coated later. The protection factor (delta) measures the protection characteristics of different solvents to the film, a quantitative relation of delta-PCE is established, and the obtained empirical formula has prediction and guidance effects on other solvents serving as protection solvents.
Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of stacked structure (double-layer) organic solar cells, in particular to a method for preparing a protective agent by using a poor solvent such as alcohols, alkanes and ethers as a protective agent. And in the sequential spin coating process, protecting the solution of the first layer from being dissolved by the receptor solution of the later spin coating, thereby preparing the organic solar cell with a stacking structure.
Background
Currently, the efficiency of a single junction organic solar cell based on a bulk heterojunction structure (BHJ) can exceed 17% and even reach 18%, and the efficiency is commercially feasible. However, the random distribution of donors and acceptors increases the probability of carrier recombination, resulting in charge transport imbalances, thereby limiting further increases in efficiency. And, in the process of spin coating the film, the component with lower surface energy in the mixed solution tends to gather towards the air interface with lower surface energy, and the component closer to the surface of the substrate tends to gather at the interface with the buried bottom, so that the whole system reaches the most stable state. In organic solar cells, this property directly affects the distribution of the active layer in the vertical direction, thereby causing instability of kinetics. Moreover, in order to further optimize the performance of the organic solar cell, a number of pre-treatment steps are required in the cell preparation process, such as: optimization of D/A ratio, addition of additives, thermal annealing, solvent annealing, and the like. Both of these steps add complexity to the processing of organic solar cells. The organic solar cell with the double-layer structure can reduce the pretreatment process in some aspects, thereby further increasing the possibility of commercial preparation. Meanwhile, in the preparation process of the organic solar cell with the double-layer structure, the organic films of the donor material and the acceptor material can be prepared separately. Therefore, the appearance of each layer of film can be controlled more favorably, and balanced charge transmission and direct charge transmission between the film and the electrode can be achieved.
Currently, in the process of preparing a double-layer organic solar cell by a spin-coating method, orthogonal solvents are mainly adopted to respectively dissolve donor materials, so that the double-layer organic solar cell is prepared. In this method, the selection of orthogonal solvents is an obstacle that limits its wide application. In experiments, there are often numerous solvents that are either not soluble or only poorly soluble in the donor and acceptor materials. Therefore, these solvents cannot be used as orthogonal solvents to prepare organic thin films. However, it can act as a layer of protective solvent to protect the first spin-coated organic film from damage by the second spin-coated organic film. Therefore, the organic solar cell having a double-layer structure can be manufactured by using the poor solvent protection method.
Poor solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N-Dimethylformamide (DMF), N-hexane, N-heptane, N-octane, ethanol, methanol, diethyl ether, and the like have no solubility or extremely weak solubility in donor and acceptor materials. These solvents do not contain benzene rings and halogen elements and can be called environment-friendly solvents. The organic thin film is coated on the first layer of organic thin film in a spin mode to protect the organic thin film from being damaged by the organic solution coated on the second layer of organic thin film in a spin mode, and therefore the organic solar cell with the double-layer structure is prepared.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention provides a method for preparing an organic solar cell (SD device) with a double-layer structure, which is an environment-friendly solvent protection method (ESP) without an orthogonal solvent, aiming at the problems of the orthogonal solvent method. The method adopts environment-friendly solvents of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N-Dimethylformamide (DMF), N-hexane, N-heptane, N-octane, ethanol, methanol and diethyl ether as protective solvents to protect the donor material spin-coated on the first layer. The concept of the protection factor (delta) is provided by researching the spreading coefficient (S) and the saturated vapor pressure (P) of the environment-friendly solvent on the surface of the organic film and further researching the protection characteristic of the environment-friendly solvent on the organic film. And a quantitative relation is established between the protection factor and the energy conversion efficiency (delta-PCE) of the battery, and the protection factor can be used as an empirical formula to guide the subsequent research.

Preparation of a double-layer organic solar cell (SD device):
the ITO glass has a plurality of square resistances of about 20 ohm/square and specifications of 15 mm multiplied by 15 mm square sheets. Ultrasonic cleaning in detergent, deionized water, acetone, and anhydrous alcohol for 30 min. Before use, the ITO glass is dried under the condition of nitrogen, and is placed under a UVO ultraviolet lamp for irradiation for 20 min. The hole transport layer PEDOT: PSS (Clevios P VP Al 4083) was spin coated at 3000rpm for 35 s. After film formation, it was annealed at 150 ℃ for 15min on a heated platen, and then transferred to a glove box for use. The donor material was dissolved in chlorobenzene solvent at a concentration of 8mg/mL and spin coated onto the hole transport layer at 1800 rpm. And then, setting the working procedure of the spin coater into two sections, wherein the first section is spin coating of the protective solvent, and the second section is spin coating of the receptor material. 25 μ L of a poor solvent was spin-coated on the donor material as a protective solvent under conditions of 800rpm for 6 s. The acceptor material was dissolved in chloroform solvent and spin-coated on the protective solvent by dynamic spin at 3500rpm for 50 s. The film was annealed at 100 ℃ for 10min to remove excess solvent and optimize the film morphology. For D18+ N3, PTB7-Th + PC71The BM system does not require heat annealing. The electron transport layer is prepared from a methanol solution of PDINO with the concentration of 1mg/mL, and is spin-coated for 35s under the condition of 3500 rpm. And finally, evaporating an Al electrode as a cathode by adopting a vacuum evaporation method.
FIG. 1 is a process diagram of the device fabrication and a block diagram of the device in example 1.
FIG. 2 is a UV-VIS absorption spectrum of a film prepared in example 1 using different protective solvents. As can be seen from FIG. 2, the light absorption ability of the film containing the protective solvent (D18/protective solvent/N3) was superior to that of the film without the protective solvent (D18/N3). Thus demonstrating that the introduction of the protective solvent protects the first layer of the spin-coated thin film of donor material. And, among the different protective solvents, the double-layer film D18/N octane/N3 prepared from N-octane has the optimal light absorption ability. Thus, it was demonstrated that the protective solvent exerts different effects on the protective properties of the donor film due to the difference in its properties.
Example 2
SD device performance and mechanism explanation
Device performance parameters based on the D18/protective solvent/N3 system in SD devices are shown in Table 1. The device performance with the protective solvent (D18/protective solvent/N3) is significantly better than the device performance without the protective solvent (D18/N3). Moreover, the performance parameters of different devices are changed due to the difference of the protective characteristics of the protective solvent. Among them, the device using n-octane as a protective solvent had the highest energy conversion efficiency of 17.52%. The environment-friendly solvent protection method is applied to other systems, and the efficiency value of the system taking n-octane as the protection solvent can reach more than 90% of that of a Bulk Heterojunction (BHJ) organic solar cell, as shown in Table 2.
TABLE 1 device Performance parameters of D8+ protective solvent + N3 System under different protective solvent conditions
TABLE 2 photovoltaic Performance parameters of SD and BHJ devices based on different photovoltaic systems
The reason for the difference in device performance is mainly due to the difference in protective characteristics of the protective solvent. An excellent protective solvent should satisfy two conditions: 1. the protective solvent has good spreadability on the surface of the film; 2. the protective solvent should have less evaporation during 6s spin coating, which requires the protective solvent to have a lower saturated vapor pressure. From these two aspects, the present patent investigated the spreading properties of different protective solvents on the surface of the donor film, measured by the spreading coefficient (S). The formula for the spreading factor is as follows:
S=γg-l(cosθ-1)
taking the system D18+ N3 as an example, the spreading factor was calculated by testing the contact angles of different protective solvents on the surface of the thin film of donor material (FIG. 3). The saturated vapor pressure P of the protective solvent at 25 ℃ is searched by inquiring a solvent manual. Thus, a new concept is proposed, the protection factor (delta) being a measure of the protective properties of different protective solvents, which is defined as
δ=S×logP
The relationship between the protection factor (delta) and the efficiency of the SD device is fitted, so that a quantitative relationship curve of the protection factor (delta) and the SD device is obtained, as shown in FIG. 4. As shown in fig. 4, the smaller the absolute value (δ) of the protection factor, the better the protection characteristics, and the more excellent the device performance. In addition, the method has good universality in different systems.
The method can be obtained from examples 1-2, and by introducing the environment-friendly solvent as the protective solvent, damage of a receptor material which is spin-coated later on a donor material is avoided, and the performance of the SD device is improved. Moreover, a quantitative relation between the protection factor and the energy conversion efficiency (delta-PCE) of the battery is established, and the empirical formula can provide guidance for later research. The environment-friendly solvent protection method breaks through the limitation of the traditional orthogonal solvent protection method on the orthogonal solvent, and has good universality.
